Government Bureaucrats Get AI Sidekick for Peanuts-But Will It Stage a Coup? 🤖

After twelve months of frolicking with artificial intelligence, pricing will be renegotiated-assuming humanity hasn’t handed over the keys to our new silicon overlords by then. The General Services Administration (GSA) calls it “essentially no-cost,” which is either charmingly optimistic or wildly naïve. Either way, it’s government efficiency meets Silicon Valley spectacle. 🎭

Reed Richards Hardly Uses His Powers in Fantastic Four – and That’s the Point

In simpler terms, it seems to me that director Matt Shakman deliberately chose to limit the stretching abilities of Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), not due to oversight or technical/financial constraints, but rather for storytelling purposes. Given today’s advanced computer-generated imagery and Disney’s substantial budget, it is clear that these factors were not the main reasons behind Reed’s reluctance to stretch. Instead, it appears that there are narrative motivations at play, which, upon reflection, make perfect sense.

MSI showed me its new mini PCs, and it’s no game — a Copilot+ PC variant of this Cubi NUC could replace your desktop at work

It turns out that this brand is well-known for its cost-effective gaming laptops, which are often highly sought after during sales events like Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday. These laptops provide a budget-friendly entry point for those who might not otherwise be able to afford one.

Bendis’s New Avengers Has Always Been Overrated

During the 2000s, Brian Michael Bendis contributed some remarkable Avengers narratives that continue to be highly regarded. The acclaim and financial success of his work, particularly “New Avengers,” are well-deserved, as this series significantly boosted the popularity of the Avengers after a period of decline and surpassed the X-Men’s sales dominance.

In truth, there have been recurring issues within “New Avengers” that can be attributed to Bendis’ writing style during this era, a time when many Marvel comics were often overrated.
